Ditch the soggy newspaper and invest in a brolly!

Apologies for the delay in blogging of late! I've had a number of things going on recently and didn't quite find enough time in the day to write a post! I know this is not quite a conventional fashion-post, but I think it's an important topic to write about at this given moment in time!

Let's face it! As much as we would like to think the spring weather is dawning upon us, waking up to a muggy, cold and grim morning everyday suggests otherwise! This January (as with many previous January's too) has been abysmal! Forever downpours, blustery winds and frost-bite have resulted in many of us failing to look after ourselves! Of course, staying wrapped up warm - layering upon layering is the only way how, but why do many of us forget about the head protecting essentials?! Travelling around Central London I am constantly surrounded by both women and men utilising the London Evening Standard as there essential rescue accessory to cover up there heads with. However, despite taking such measures....they are left miserably soaked either way! 

DITCH THE SOGGY NEWSPAPER! 

Fashion involves every aspect about how we dress to how we look, and even utilising an umbrella/winter hat as an essential accessory can look just as chic and fashionable as opposed to a soggy newspaper! Honestly, the weather in the UK requires us to cherish onto at least one of these head-accessories, and finding the most suitable and attractive one for yourself will enable you stay protected in a fashionable manner too!
